NCAA FOOTBALL 2024 MEGA THREAD - WELCOME TO THE PLAYOFF ERA
Just 8 days until Florida State plays Georgia Tech!
A lot happened while you were away:
Texas and Oklahoma joined the SEC
T
As a regular watcher of B1G football games, I am greatly enjoying the emergence of this hilarious "OMG the Refs are biased against Ohio State" narrative.
IT is unlikely to make a difference but our two bowl games came with lost equity from creative PI calls. They were basically both the same play where the WR reverses and hooks back toward and underthrown ball contacting the defender chasing him.
It's an SEC crew tonight, I think the Big2 cartel > regional rivalry.
Of course it would be good for the ACC. You don't have to "imagine" a scenario where it works to help the ACC. Rather, the hard part is coming up with a scenario where it does not help them. That is the whole problem with this angle-shooting idea. I am pretty sure the CFB Board or Managers would have concerns if any conference decides to designate their "Conference Champion" fr
This won't be allowed because it shines a light in the absurdity of crowning a 'champion' based on the one end of season game. You have to rack your brain just to remember the times that the CCG was not an exhibition game for the best team vs an also-ran.
I swear to hear these super dynasty coaches talk it's like so simplistic. Saban reminds me so much of Wooden in that regard. Almost like that Chauncey Gardner character. Saban: "Yeah, if you get a bunch of explosive plays you score a lot. You need more than your opponents." Wooden: "Yeah, I think Lew can play center for us if he earns the starting job." Over and over and over.
What a day! First black coach to get a title on MLK day?, inauguration of pre-Civil War mentality, Freeman against alma mater, Freeman going for the 3rd year ND magic, game in Atlanta, arctic chill hits DC symbolic of demise/turning point of the great experiment. Like I always say, this stuff gets Shakespearean.

Saban and Wooden have another thing in common:

They're both cheaters
Pretty voice and not too much French pastry. Did they say she is deaf??
That's good. I've never seen it. I've hardly seen any of the sports movies. They just never did it for me in terms of realness in the game scenes, but I guess it isn't the game scenes that make them good.
But no "You gotta give it 200%" on there?
I loved "Rudy". Just wanted to get that out in the universe before the game starts.
No I think they just had some kid doing sign that no one pays attention or cares about

No, but they do pile up quite nicely.
This is a rare one in that there's no big game or anything it's building towards.
I don't anticipate Ohio State to sit in soft quarters to long in this game. But I get it, they don't want Leonard to move around much. But man, make his early throws challenging. I don't like allowing Leonard to find some pace for them.
At first I thought they were broadcasting with no announcers. Then a little. Then some more. Then back to full speed.
It was much better earlier on with only an occasional comment. Muting completely is too much, but sparse commentary is so much better!
My god this is actually happening. So fired up right now. Thank god I live in the right universe.
I hate ND as much as any team in college ball, but I might have to pull for them here.
Nauseating feeling.
Not going to lie, I do enjoy the fact that the Notre Dame OC's entire game plan throughout the playoffs has been to say to Riley Leonard "okay, now imagine that you're Tim ****ing Tebow".
